pdf attach terms and conditions to email

Yes it is possible, but it’s not within the scope of this plugin. You can use the woocommerce_email_attachments filter and copy some of the code used in the plugin to your functions.php, like this:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_email_attachments', 'attach_terms_conditions_pdf_to_email', 10, 3);

function attach_terms_conditions_pdf_to_email ( $attachments, $status , $order ) {
	$allowed_statuses = array( 'new_order', 'customer_invoice', 'customer_processing_order', 'customer_completed_order' );

	if( isset( $status ) && in_array ( $status, $allowed_statuses ) ) {
		$your_pdf_path = get_template_directory() . '/terms.pdf';
		$attachments[] = $pdf_path;
	}

	return $attachments;
}

I did not test this code so I cannot guarantee it works, but the basic principle is there.

Hello Paul,
Sending static files is now a feature of the Professional extension.

WooCommerce does not send an email for on-hold orders, so there’s nothing to attach to. You could add a trigger to email the “customer_invoice” email after an order is set to on-hold and the payment method is bacs, but that is something you will have to figure out in WooCommerce. This plugin can only attach a PDF to existing WooCommerce emails.

Good luck!

Hello Paul,
I stand corrected, WooCommerce does indeed send out an email for BACS, it appears to be the processing email. I am not sure what your question is though, it should work when you attach the PDF to the processing email. You don’t even need extra function for this at all – you can just check the checkbox in front of “Customer Processing Order email”. This will work for both the regular processing emails and the automatic BACS “on-hold” processing emails (tested and confirmed), it’s just that it won’t send the email a second time when moving from on-hold to processing manually.

I’m not sure I understand. Without using my plugin it’s not possible at all to create an invoice, unless you use another plugin, in which case you will have to consult the maker of that plugin. The field “Customer Processing Order email” is on the General settings tab of this plugin.

That explains, then you are the maker of that plugin that i mentioned in my last post :o)
This is the forum for the WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips plugin.
I believe I have already answered your question. ‘customer_processing_order’ is the email type / ‘status’ you need. I also wrote that this will not work when you change the status manually from on-hold to processing, because WooCommerce will only send the email once.

If you have any questions about WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips I’d be happy to answer them, but I can’t be expected to help you with your custom code that has nothing to do with this plugin.

Paul, users of my plugin have an option to attach the PDF invoice to the processing order: simply by checking the “Customer Processing Order email” option. That is why your question (which is about your custom PDF invoice plugin) is irrelevant – users of this plugin do not have this issue.
Also, nothing needs to be changed in WooCommerce for this to work, please follow along:

1. As soon as an order is placed it is set to pending. This is true for all orders, regardless of the payment method
2. When BACS is used, the status is then set to on-hold
3. In the WC_Email_Customer_Processing_Order class, you can see that there are two trigger actions for this email:
   woocommerce_order_status_pending_to_processing_notification and woocommerce_order_status_pending_to_on-hold_notification. That last action applies to the automatic change between 1. and 2. above.
4. The get_attachments() function from the WC_Email class passes the id of the email, which is customer_processing_order (see: $this->id in WC_Email_Customer_Processing_Order) for the “processing” email. And so, if you want to attach anything to the BACS email, you use this id (called ‘status’ in my plugin, which may be confusing, since it is not just the end status that triggers an email).
5. You imply that it is not possible to attach to the BACS email, but I think that is because you moved to the on-hold status manually. As you can see above, that only works if you move from pending to on-hold – which is what happens if you place a BACS order

The original question was fully answered 11 months ago. Attaching a static file to any WooCommerce email is now a feature of the Professional extension.

there is no action hook for “woocommerce_order_status_on-hold_to_processing_notification”

There is:
If you look in abstract-wc-order.php, you’ll find:

do_action( 'woocommerce_order_status_' . $old_status . '_to_' . $new_status, $this->id );

Which means that there’s an action hook for every status transition you can think of.

I did not move to the on-hold status manually, and there is no way to do so from what I can see in the Admin Orders section.

You can set any status manually, just not in bulk. If you go into the order you can manually set every state (and thus simulate all state transitions).

By the way, if you apply that hack from Remi Corson, it won’t include the bank details in the email anymore, since that is only included when the status is on-hold! You can add this by changing copying the email_instructions function into the WC_Gateway_BACS_custom class and modifying the status requirement.
